Footing in place, supported on clay bricks to allow concrete to flow arround the pad. Pad overall dimension 1.5m x 1.5m steel cage dimension 1.3m x 1.3 m.76 viewsI had to complete the first stages of the construction quickly so decided to use the conceret pipes to form the below grade section of the columns. This allows backfilling of the footing as soon as the concrete had hardened and avoided the need to construct wooden forms.chiyman
